The Ugly Duckling - Usborne First Reading

Mother duck hatches a brood of ducklings. All are sweet little yellow babies -- all but one, who is very large, very gray, and very ugly. The poor ugly duckling is teased and tormented by everyone he meets, even his own mother, brothers, and sisters. Driven from his home in the barnyard, the unhappy duckling wanders the world alone, suffering hardships, cruelty, and ridicule wherever he goes.
